Anybody have luck shooting cross eye dominant?

Been thinking about this a lot lately. Been consistently shooting compound for about 4 years now and I’m a right handed shooter with left eye dominancy. I’ve always shot guns/bows with my left eye closed but lately been hearing more and more about shooting with both eyes open, especially while hunting. Anyways I’ve been trying a card over left eye and I’m impressed how stable everything feels, but now I’m curious when do you remove the card? Does it ever get better?

With that said I’m looking to get a new bow this year and debating going lefty but it’s scary think dropping 1k+ into an offhand bow. Anyways just curious what everyone’s experience with this?

Question on bow fit - Mathews V3 31"

Long story short: I decided after 2 years to upgrade my used Dreniln. Went in to a local shop and they steered me towards a V3. In hindsight they didn't spend near as much time with me as they should have. Anyway, my wingspan is just under 76" and the bow is set at it's max draw length of 30.5". In order to get a good sight picture and have my nose touch the string, I need to tilt my head down just slightly, which then causes my jaw to change position and a loose a bit of my anchor point. Is this common for a shorter bow, or should I really have gone with a bow that goes to 31" and/or a longer axle to axle to get a better angle? V3s are hard to come by around here so I may be able to recoup most of the cost of the bow if I decide to switch. Not sure what to do. I went back to the bow shop and the guy said "That's the cool thing about archery, some people move there head, lean back, lean forward, it's all a matter of how you want to shoot"...I...

(New?) Dual Takedown Recurve Case Option

Before I get to the case. HUGE shoutout to u/FerrumVeritas to all of his fawking awesome posts about equipment, risers, etc. Me and some friends started archery a few weeks ago, and after weeks of looking around and compiling info, the best I could share with my friends are mostly his posts interspersed with my own opinions and analysis in our shared spreadsheet. To the case! Not that I looked, but it doesn't look like anyone has done this yet? I wanted a case, but didn't want to carry around a rifle sized case. Nor did I want something obscenely heavy. I prefer a hardcase, but they were all exorbitantly expensive. I like the look of SKB, and the reviews and reputation is there; but for the price, I don't feel like the value is there. I also wanted something a bit different. Enter the Pelican 1605 Air! Website measurements showed a 25" riser was a tight fit in the Pelican, so I took a gamble that 1/2" of foam was plenty to protect the riser's ends. ...

How To Buy/Make a Portable Target?

First post, howdy to all the archers! Here's my dilemma. I'm brand new to archery, and live in California. I'm determined to take my bow out to the desert on BLM land with me on an overlanding trip, but the problem is I can't seem to figure out how to bring a portable target with me. Space is limited in my SUV, and bringing a giant packed archery target bag thing will just take up too much room. Does anyone have any advice or ideas on how to practice some archery out in the desert without lugging around a giant straw target etc? Thanks for any help! submitted by /u/PerfectForTheToaster [link] [comments] from newest submissions : Archery https://ift.tt/3r0HV99 via
